Cooking Mama Let’s Cook Puzzle is a new puzzle game for the iOS and Android platforms. Your goal in this is to mix various little food icons together, known as Foo-Don, turn them into tasty recipes, cook them and serve them up to your waiting customers. Your goal is to earn as many points as you can in the allotted time given, and then to open up more restaurants until you have an empire. Read on for some tips and tricks for Cooking Mama Let’s Cook Puzzle!

When you have two or more pieces of an identical food next to each other, hold your finger down on one of them and all of the foods that are touching each other will merge together into one larger piece of the same food, with a number over it. You can take this merged piece of food and merge with even more food, including other merged food, to make huge combinations of food.

When the combination is big enough for you, tap it and it will be cooked and served to the customers, which earns you points. The bigger the number over the food, the more points that you will learn as you clear combinations. Make sure to actually clear off all of the combinations before the end of the round or you will not earn any points for your big combinations. They’ll just sit there.

After you clear out all of your big combinations, start tapping around the screen randomly and you will clear off a large number of small combinations at a rapidfire pace. Do this for the rest of the time that the round is going. You will end up earning a massive amount of points this way, with this type of combination. For whatever reason it’s a lot tougher to do the small combo trick before knocking off a large number of big combos.

You can raise Foo-Don outside of the puzzles. Think of them like pets with skills, except they look exactly like your food. The higher their experience levels, the bigger the bonus you get when you make combinations using them in the puzzle levels. You earn one experience point per Foo-Don for every one of their identical food that you clear, and you can also earn 1,500 experience points in one shot by spending a ticket on them to “cultivate” them.

Many of the quests will involve making certain recipes. Head to the recipe section of your book, right next to the Foo-Don section, to check what recipes you have already. You’ll unlock more of them as you complete quests, and especially as you open new restaurant
